The Ape as an Artisan.

Romanes, the English physie!ogist,
classes the ape and the dog together as
having, by different routes, reached the
highest point represented by animal in
telligence in modern-that is to say,
t-Darwinian-times.
NJ. Victor Meunier, French physi-
ologist, gives to the discovery of his
English confrere ON essentially prac-
tical turn. He asks not only that the
ape shall be made domestic animal
like the dog, but that it shall be prop
erly trained in various domestic duties,
and even prepared by regular course
of instruction to take its place as fac
tory operative in our large industrial
establishments. Such an employment
of the manlike animal, thinks M. Meu-
nier, would utilize in the service of
humanity much cheap labor that is now
allowed to run to waste. "-Netc York
